Job 42

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 And Job said in answer to the Lord,

2 I see that you are able to do every thing, and to give effect to all your designs.

3 Who is this who makes dark the purpose of God by words without knowledge? For I have been talking without knowledge about wonders not to be searched out.

4 Give ear to me, and I will say what is in my mind; I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.

5 Word of you had come to my ears, but now my eye has seen you.

6 For this cause I give witness that what I said is false, and in sorrow I take my seat in the dust.

7 And it came about, after he had said these words to Job, that the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, I am very angry with you and your two friends, because you have not said what is right about me, as my servant Job has.

8 And now, take seven oxen and seven sheep, and go to my servant Job, and give a burned offering for yourselves, and my servant Job will make prayer for you, that I may not send punishment on you; because you have not said what is right about me, as my servant Job has.

9 And Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did as the Lord had said. And the Lord gave ear to Job.

10 And the Lord made up to Job for all his losses, after he had made prayer for his friends: and all Job had before was increased by the Lord twice as much.

11 And all his brothers and sisters, and his friends of earlier days, came and took food with him in his house; and made clear their grief for him, and gave him comfort for all the evil which the Lord had sent on him; and they all gave him a bit of money and a gold ring.

12 And the Lord's blessing was greater on the end of Job's life than on its start: and so he came to have fourteen thousand sheep and goats, and six thousand camels, and two thousand oxen, and a thousand she-asses.

13 And he had seven sons and three daughters.

14 And he gave the first the name of Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch;

15 And there were no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job in all the earth: and their father gave them a heritage among their brothers.

16 And after this Job had a hundred and forty years of life, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.

17 And Job came to his end, old and full of days.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 2 Then Iyov answered Hashem, and said,

2 I have da’as that Thou canst do all things, and that no purpose of Thine can be thwarted.

3 Who is this that hideth etzah (counsel) without da’as? Therefore have I judged without understanding things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

4 Shema, I beseech Thee, and I will speak; I will ask of Thee, and declare Thou unto me.

5 I have heard of Thee by the hearing of the ozen, but now mine eye hath seen Thee.

6 Therefore I abhor myself, and nichamti (I am sorry, I make teshuvah) in dust and ashes.

7 And it was so, that after Hashem had spoken these words unto Iyov, Hashem said to Eliphaz the Temani, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken in reference to Me the thing that is nekhonah (correct), like Avdi Iyov hath.

8 Therefore take unto you now seven bulls and seven rams, and go to Avdi Iyov, and offer up for yourselves olah (burnt offering); and Avdi Iyov shall pray for you; for him will I accept; lest I deal with you after your nevalah (folly), in that ye have not spoken in reference to Me the thing which is nekhonah (correct), like Avdi Iyov.

9 So Eliphaz the Temani and Bildad the Shuchi and Tzophar the Na’amati went, and did according as Hashem commanded them. Hashem also accepted Iyov.

10 And Hashem restored the fortunes of Iyov, when he prayed for his friends; also Hashem gave Iyov twice as much as he possessed before.

11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat lechem with him in his bais; and they expressed sympathy with him, and comforted him over all the ra’ah that Hashem had brought upon him; every ish also gave him a kesitah, and every ish a ring of zahav.

12 So Hashem blessed the acharit (latter end) of Iyov more than his reshit; for he had fourteen thousand tzon, and six thousand gemalim, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-donkeys.

13 He had also seven banim and shalosh banot.

14 And he called the shem of the first, Yemima, and the shem of the second, Ketziah, and the shem of the third, Keren-hapuch.

15 And in kol ha’aretz were no nashim found so fair as the banot Iyov; and their av gave them nachalah with their achim.

16 After this lived Iyov an hundred and forty shanah, and saw his banim, and his banei banim, even arba’ah dorot.

17 So Iyov died, being zaken and full of yamim.
